La sala de Historia expone la vitivinicultura en México a partir de la llegada de los españoles y el desarrollo con la presencia de los misioneros en Baja California, hasta nuestros días.
La Sala de Industria muestra los procesos de elaboración del vino, desde la tierra, con el ciclo vegetativo de la vid, tipos de variedades y técnicas de riego. Los procesos para la producción de los vinos tintos, blancos y artesanales, encorche, embotellado, crianza y distribución.
En la Sala de Identidad, se identifican los actores clave en la producción y promoción del vino, así como el surgimiento de festivales y la formación de una cultura vitivinícola que emerge en Baja California.
En la Sala el Vino y el Arte, la pintura, el dibujo, la gráfica, la escultura y la intervención en botellas son algunas de las disciplinas que se pueden encontrar, producto de la creatividad de 24 artistas con 43 piezas, que se conjugan para crear un discurso en el que la vid y el vino no solo inspira, sino crea y se hace presente en el arte tomando como referente la cultura del vino como fuente de inspiración para su obra.
